HO-LY HELL!
I have typed out and deleted sooooo many sentences; none of which seem to embody what I am feeling right now.
It pains me to admit this, but I live my life in fear. I am my own worst enemy, my biggest critic, and I will self-sabotage myself at every turn. When it comes to life I like to play it safe. I hope for your sake you're not like me. It's a constant struggle for me to step outside of my comfort zone, but I do it. And I will continue to do it.
I have a bird tattooed on my left wrist underneath the word "free". At first glance you may find yourself wondering if I have some sort of sick obsession with Lynyrd Skynyrd. I assure you that I do not. (Although, Free Bird is a pretty kick ass song.) I got the tattoo to remind myself that I am FREE to be anyone or anything I want to be. It's on my wrist because that's where handcuffs shackle you... I wanted a permanent reminder.
Life is too short for doubt. We don't need to fear the "what if's".
Find out what you love. Find out who you are. And own the shit out of both those things.
For a funny man, Jim Carrey sure is a smartie pants.
I hope that you'll take a chance on whatever it is that you love. Step outside of your comfort zone.
I leave you with the lyrics from a song called The Messenger by of one of my all time FAVORITE bands - The Bouncing Souls
This is a message to you
a message to you
[Chorus]
I am a messenger
I’m passing a message to you
a messenger
I’m passing along words in a song
Yeah
Yeah
I was lost I was like tv
a dead end road with no meaning
love to be a kid with no worries
it seems so hard
oh it seems so hard
so hard to be free
I am a messenger
I’m passing a message to you
a messenger
I’m passing along words in a song
Yeah
Yeah
I see people looking just like me
wandering on a dead end street
somewhere somehow we lost a key
to another place
away from this rat race
let the music play
let the music play
it’ll take your breath away
Whoahh
Whoahh
let all the people hear it
let all the people feel it
let all the people hear it
raise your voice (whoooahh)
it’s your choice
raise your voice (whoooahh)
it’s your choice
I am a messenger
I’m passing a message to you
a messenger
passing by this night
a messenger
I’m passing along words in a song
Yeah
Yeah
this is a message to you
do what you love
love what you do
this is a message to you
do what you love
this is a message to you
what you love
what you love
what you love
